I find it ironic that I'm being yelled at in a thread that's about 'ideas which are unspeakable'.
In practice, I'm very loving of the women in my life, and I treat them well. I know how to make them feel special. Did you read the original article by Ferd?
This is a thread about unspeakable ideas, not unspeakable behavior. You are advocating domestic violence and (I infer) admitting to committing it as well.
Reread what I wrote; I never said I hit my women, or any woman for that matter. Quite frankly, even if a woman deserves a slap (as Sean Connery advocated, calling this DV is ridiculous), I'll just kick her out of my life - the present legal climate ignores female-on-male violence, and loves prosecuting the male. No woman is worth it, even if she enjoys it.
I said I laid down the law with women. When they're being bratty or rude, I inform them that such behaviour is unnacceptable. I'm not going to tolerate it, and the door's right over there if they don't like it. Refusing to take abuse from somebody is not being abusive oneself.
Furthermore, I said that women appreciate a man who won't put up with their hysterics. Women seek out that sort of calming influence for the maelstrom of emotions they have flowing through their veins.
Okay, so you're just advocating it, then.
I've been in an abusive relationship. You greatly underestimate the amount of psychological damage the occasional slap can do.
